Remember snow? Yeah it’s totally a thing here. That being said, right now my windows are open, I’m wearing a mini-skirt, and the birds are chirping. Thinking back to the super cold though, I remember that late afternoon we got to spend with Don and Erin, the day before they went to the courthouse for a private ceremony to get married. This session really was about as “engagement session-y” as you could be. It was essentially their rehearsal dinner!

When I say Erin was shy… what I mean is… Erin is really shy. Like she wouldnt look at our camera and hid her face in the Don’s arms at first. This was actually really cool for us because we got to experience photographing in a different way. Focusing on letting her be herself and shy, while making her as comfortable as possible. You’ll see…

Julie and Chuck are crazy about each other and they just wanted to get married. There was a complete focus on that one thing on their wedding day, which is always my favorite. Of course they had lovely flowers and jewelry and fancy clothes, delicious food and close friends and family… but the focus of the day was on becoming husband and wife. Isn’t that what is supposed to be about?

We met them at their rented beachside house and then we all headed downstairs to the living room for their rainy day wedding. There were dogs wandering around and getting puppy kisses and pets, right in the middle of exchanging rings and human kisses. After the ceremony we went outside for some portraits and then before we knew it, it was time for us to leave and let them enjoy sweet family time.
